Line 45:
'''Lambertus VII''' (Lambertus Gustav Velor Constantine; born 26th April 1972) is King of [[Great Morstaybishlia]] and other realms. He is Commander-in-chief of the [[Royal Armed Forces of the Empire]].
 
Lambertus was born in Caligas House as the first child of King Galfridus and Queen Isobel. He was born during the [[Auroran Imperial War]] where at the time the location of his birth was kept secret. He was educated privately at home. From birth he was the heir apparent. He began to undertake public duties during the late 1980s and early 1990s, serving in the Royal Marines. In 1990, he married Lady Rosetta Visteue, Duchess of JubraynJubliak, with whom he has six children: [[Prince Thadeus]], [[Princess Rosamund]], [[Princess Harriet]], [[Prince Edward]], [[Prince Thomas]] and [[Princess Celina]].
 
When his father died in 1991, Lambertus became head of the Morstaybishlian Commonwealth and King regnant of three independent countries: Morstaybishlia, [[Lokania]] and [[Justelvard]]. He reigned as a [[wikipedia:constitutional monarch|constitutional monarch]] through nearly two and a half decades of relative peacetime. This was interrupted by two wars in 2016 and 2017; the [[Four Days War]] and the [[Auroran-Pacific War]]. His many historic visits and meetings include a state visit to the Kingdom Of Kuthernburg and the Wedding of Oahoanu and Aroha. Significant events have included his coronation in 1992 and the celebrations of his Silver Jubilee in 2016.
Line 70:
Just before the wedding, Rosetta Visteue was created Duchess of Jubliak and granted the style ''Her Royal Highness''.
 
Lambertus and Rosetta were married on 30 September 1990 at Syllester Abbey. The event was invite-only but was broadcast to 41 countries, with an estimated broadcasting audience of over 900 million people. They received 2,500 wedding gifts from around the world. The Duke and Duchess of JubraynJubliak would go on to have their first child, Prince Thadeus, 3 years later.
 
==Reign==
===Ascension and coronation===
 
Despite his health improving during the first half of the year, his private secretary, Richard Kladnes, carried a draft accession declaration in case the King died while he was on duty. On 6 June 1991, eleven days after he left Morstaybishlia, word arrived of the death of the King and consequently Lambertus's immediate accession to the throne. Admiral Broderick Lunter broke the news to the new king. On the telephone, Richard Kladnes asked him to choose a regnal name; he chose to reign under the name of Lambertus VII, instead of Gustav III, the name his father had intended for him to use. Lambertus became King of Morstaybishlia and, in an innovation, King of the Morstaybishlian Commonwealth. He returned to Morstaybishlia and with the Duchess of JubraynJubliak moved in to [[Sani Bursil Royal Palace]].
 
The coronation date for 21 February 1992 went ahead as planned. The event was televised worldwide and gathered an audience of nearly half a billion.
